Every Rangers game I watch Dan Boyle is just getting hammered blocking shots. Dude is gonna get killed out there.
i think we're one chara slapshot blinding someone away from the blocked shot becomming somehow enforceably against the rules.

or mandatory face cages

Hahaha. Why else would I be oppose to that!?

Do you honestly think they will enforce a "no block" rule or are you just trying to sound smart?

he just wanted you to know how awesome chara's slapshots are without being too obvious about it

but like a typical boston homer he slipped on the leftover drool on the floor after slobbing yet another boston's players knob.

He's got a point though. I've had similar thoughts that they might institute a rule disallowing Crosby to continually embarrass defensemen. He's already been responsible for untold divorces and suicides by spouses that just couldn't respect their husbands after what he's done to them. It's really unfair.

And that's not even mentioning the damage he's done to Ovie's fragile psyche. All the pressure of trying to compare has ruined the man, you saw that the only way he could perform was when Crosby was out. As soon as he came back Ovie started putting up goose eggs again.

Also they should outlaw Brooks Orpik's hits. He lands one clean hit and entire teams lose their fucking minds and spend the rest of the game taking runs at him. It's not fair to them to have their little ego's so bruised by one good clean hit and take them out of their game.

"or mandatory face cages" it's pretty obvious this will change, just like when they added helmets and banned smoking on the bench - you know, pretty antiquated stuff.

stoicynic did you enjoy your first nhl game?

Crosby is a great player but he is impossible to like when you got guys like grimlokk throating him down all the way to the perineum

Yup, and it will all be because of Chara! Boston sports fans are cute.

Seriously though, it's not gonna happen anytime soon if ever.

But how does his dick taste?

Your missing the point bro. Everyone knows Chara is nasty, dont be dumb. Rangers are the only team that proactively jump in front of slapshots on a consistent basis. If it was a widespread problem then yeah, I could see a disciplinary contingency being implemented. Until then, stop stealth bragging and let me sulk in my teams loss.

Fuck, at least Merrith was humble in his stealth braggery (made up word, what of it??). <3<3 Merrith =)

It annoys me that for every Azeth or Itlan who confirms my stupid bias against fanbases there's a Merrith or Edko humanizing them.


So Spezza is playing tonight, gotta be good for Ottawa. Especially since Karlsson's recent comments make it sound like he's so fucked mentally right now.

I gotta say I thought the Ottawa Andersons would be doing better than they have so far.

Don't let this shitbag Azeth be a representation of Boston sports fans, he's not even from Boston. He grew up cheering for the Mighty Ducks after he saw the movie for the 4th time in theaters. He thought a Celtic was of english dissent and a Patriot was a soldier from the revolutionary war up until 2004. And the only Red Sox he can tell you about are the ones under his bed that he used to catch his teenage sauce while he was tuggin it to Lenny Dykstra. Kid's the co-pilot on the 2001 Boston Bandwagon.
